The Prose and Poetry of New York's Favorite Nerd Irishman

It’s Friday the Not Quite 13th!!

I wanted to run this “Friday the 13th” image on the last Friday the 13th, which was in November. But that was the occasion of the terror attacks in Paris, and all of our sensibilities were devoted elsewhere.

I like it because it’s a poster for the legendary 1980 movie that I hadn’t seen before. I actually got it from the Facebook page of actress and painter Adrienne King (pictured in her role as “Alice” below). She’s incredibly cool and sweet, and she even wished me a happy birthday a while back! I was also surprised to find out that she’s originally from Oyster Bay, Long Island.

Anyway, if you find her Facebook page, it’s a treasure trove for horror fans.
